EA turns in bummer fiscal report: “We’re disappointed in our underperformance”
New games announced; after-hours EA stock trading suggests a severe drop.
EA's latest quarterly fiscal report included a stark admission: Battlefield V's sales fell way below expectations. This, combined with a severe drop in mobile-gaming revenue, led EA's executives to admit that they were "disappointed in our underperfomance" in fiscal Q3 2019.
BFV's sales to date, according to EA COO and CFO Blake Jorgensen, have reached 7.3 million copies across all platforms worldwide, which the company says is "one million less" than it had indicated in previous Q3 2019 guidance. Jorgensen didn't mince words: he blamed the drop in the series' uptake on the developers' focus on a single-player campaign, as opposed to having a promised battle royale mode ready for fans in time for the game's launch.

EA - we've screwed people too many times, now nobody wants to buy any of our games.

I want them to burn in hell, that's for sure - they haven't done anything with the Westwood library in forever - there's talk that something is coming out for Red Alert 2, but I hvaen't seen anything in months.

BioWare’s sky-high gaming ambition crashes back to Earth
It's out, finally. But maybe it shouldn't be.
BioWare, the developer responsible for Mass Effect and Dragon Age, has returned with its first new series in over a decade, Anthem. It's a pretty big departure for the RPG-heavy studio: a jetpack-fueled, action-first online "looter-shooter." And after a disastrous demo launched weeks ago, we wondered whether we'd even get a playable game.
The good news is that we did, and at its best, Anthem feels brilliant, beautiful, and thrilling. At its worst, though, this is a stuttering, confusing, heartfelt mess of an action game.

I snagged Final Fantasy 13 on the Steam sale this week. I had $10 in my steam account and it was $7 and change. I went a head and sprung for it.
I'm also playing Endereal (the Skyrim overhaul). It's a little buggy, but so far, it's not bad.
